Early experience
Kerwin Chen, a native of Taishan Wencun, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, was born in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province in 2008. Since her first contact with skateboarding on New Year's Day, 20 16 1.2, she has been out of control. Chen Yeping practices in a skateboard shop, and his father will take him to the skateboard park in China during the holidays, among which he likes to go to the skateboard park in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong.
There were too few professional bowl pool coaches in Zhongshan at that time. Chen decided to go into battle himself. He searched the Internet, watched a lot of videos, kept learning, learned all kinds of difficult movements of disassembling skateboards, and then practiced with his son one by one. 20 19, Kerwin Chen, age 1 1, joined the Guangdong skateboarding team. The simple venue can no longer meet the training needs of my son, so we must find a more professional training ground. Chen decided to make his own bowl pool.
2065438+September 2009, Chen rented a warehouse of more than 200 square meters and about 4 meters high in Zhongshan East Street, and used his 3D computer design knowledge to restore the bowl pool from the modeling drawings on the computer to this construction site.
